DayZ does not fantastic on anything right now. Wait for the new render, it should yield a nice performance improvement for everyone. In the short you can try this. http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/28cla2/dayz_sa_frame_optimization_launch_options_fov/

Autorun? sounds like a hack. But while they are at it why don't they implement auto aim and auto regen so you can enjoy the full CoD experience... :facepalm:

only found 2 so far, 98hr's logged in the last 2 weeks searching. :/ very lucky indeed...

While this is true, our gun laws are more relaxed that most other countries realize. Go to the states and you might find loaded weapons. In England you won't even find Revolvers and Pistols in civic areas as only Long guns are legal for civic use. Ultimately though its up to the devs. In locations like Heli crash site I can see it. I can't see a soldier going into battle with a unloaded weapon. At houses and police stations though I cannot.

Pretty cool stuff, I will add this to the list off stuff I need for my PC upgrade. I'm down to ram and vid cards. I'm not sure if Im going Crossfire again or SLi this time. multie monitor for sure.

throw away my flash light.

I always find SKS's near tanks/APC's in military bases. Pu Scopes I find at the red roofed "L" shaped houses, bars and storage lockers.

I'm against this, no responsible firearm owner keep loaded weapons in their homes. I have a firearms license, I also know many many people who do also. You would be lucky to find ammo and mags stored in the same container never mind a loaded weapon. Just my $0.02

Simple possible solutions: -Keep out of high/valuable loot areas. -Always keep your guard up. -The buddy system, one person goes in one takes watch. -The planned anti-combat logging system, which should also prevent combat and damage for X time until fully connected once logging on. In other words once your join a server, you cannot A take damage and B deal Damage for X time.

I try to give people a chance. But it seems that I always get burned. Mic or not they KoS.No beans for you.

Report those servers, its against the rules, they also cannot put passwords on them or kick you off. Although it would be nice to be able to see if they have it turned on or not in the server list. Add a few columns for persistence, difficulty and such.

I use it, I also have a Razer Naga mouse & Deathstalker keyboard. Razer Game boost closes/stops unnecessary processes when you launch games making your PC faster! It also gives you a on screen FPS meter. To be fair though the new render will make a huge difference performance wise. DX10/11 is so much better than DX9c. For starters DX9c only supports 2GPU's. So if our got Tri/Quad SLI or Crossfire then your going to get a boost from the dormant GPU's. DX10.1 allows GPU's to do AA before the pixle is fully rendered amongst other improvements. DX11 introduced multi threading to DX. While drivers from Nvidia and AMD have been threaded for awhile DX was not properly threaded until DX11. http://www.anandtech.com/show/2716/4

Just as the title, Gimp suits to control hostages. Gage balls so they cannot use the in game chat. Improvised gags with rags would also tie into this. Obviously these would be rare residential spawns. Not everyone is into S&M although since 50 shades of grey...

Only if they introduce nudie deck play cards with girls on the back. DayZ backwoods Casino? Currency can be cans of beans!

By default the game only shows servers with less than 100ms ping time. You can change that in the options. I had to, my internet sucks. add a few zeros. That way you can find the server your looking for and tell if your getting a good connection.

If a item is put down under a evergreen tree or bush it will not show up on the local items screen. You have to cut down the tree. Hope that helps, its also a great way to hide stuff.

I had this last night. After I my random glitch dead I got respawned at the beach and eventually in Novo. So I immediately ran to the water well on the north side of town. Naturally I have nothing (Bambi). I saw him and announced that I was friendly, and asked if he knew where I could find a backpack. I got a muttered responce (could not hear). He then proceeded to walk around the building (thinking I could not see him). He came up beside me and pulled out his melee weapon. My response was really? And he killed me.

Just so I understand this correctly. If I buy the DayZ Supporter Edition then I will receive two Steam Codes. One for DayZ, One for ARMA 2 Complete. Its my brothers birthday on the 24th. I was going to buy it through Steam, but there is no Supporter Edition option directly in Steam.

I bought it in steam. %15 off. Thanks for the reply.

My brother is in the military. I was going to buy him the standalone and ARMA 2. Which I though he would also enjoy. i don't think his AMD A8 powered laptop will run ARMA 3. Although, he has as many steamshaders as my aging desktop currently. I'll buy it though steam I think.

I'm also giving away 7.62mmx51mm lead cones...

It's all good until you find one piece of valuable loot, then the DayZ paranoia sets in. You start being more cautious, KOS and eventually die due to in game bugs... :(

The only problem I seen to get is when I log in my screen is sometime black. It seems to happen regardless of the time of day in the server. Ill say to my buddy, is this a night time server? His response, It's high noon. Its been reported. Changing my AA setting seems to fix the problem. I'm due for a upgrade though. Video cards will be the last thing on the list.

Its already been discussed that they won't do growing beards. They do want to do some way to show that your character is a survivor. I'm against in game skills. When you acquire better skills at the keyboard, your reward is not dieing as often.

I'm running 2x HD4670's in crossfire. No problems to report on the ATi front.
